Commonwealth - shommenwealth

The Commonwealth Games are two days away and the Baton went past the local library which is five minutes away from my house. I went to Mons house, I find it absolutely ridicules that a BATON with NO flame is using up tax payers money and time. It’s sooooo pathetic. I love the Olympic games and I quite like watching sport but this whole Commonwealth games thing is way, way, way over the top.
There blocking off streets, trying to put the homeless into motels and all for what??
The USA isn’t in these games so we may just blitz the athletic fields.
We do in the pool regardless but I just find the whole who ha a bit of a waste of time.
Half the tickets are not sold and venues won’t be filled for major events.
I think it will look a little – empty.
The city has been counting down from a hundred and fifty or so days so no wonder I’m over it.

I read something that questioned if we hide in our life. Don’t face things. Prolong etc.
Then it said “we might hide ourselves, in keeping a busy lifestyle, writing in a journal….” Now I have kept a journal since I was thirteen. Before that I had the random entry or so. I think it’s good to write down thoughts and feelings. But I can see how it can be a way of hiding.
Is blogging hiding? But from what. It’s meant to be from your true feelings.
I don’t know. I do know that without my I may be a little less sane then I am now!
I think writing takes away stress, makes you see things from a different angle and it captures moments and memories.
A written picture maybe.

I went for a walk/ jog today and it was good. Damon loved it he got to play with two dogs and was obedient. He’s put on more weight. I think my brother is feeding him behind my back. I think my mum’s probably in on it.
He’s lost any of his shape and when he sits down a roll is starting to appear.
Too fat for a dog his size but my mum has it in her head that unless animals are obese and can’t move then they are skinny.

I have my job interview tomorrow… I hope I get it. Good money and I really need that. I need money for my car repayments, food, bills that just keep coming in – but it will work out. Something will work out if not this.

Thea sent me a text today filling me in on her night out. It sounded like she had a ball which made me smile and wish I could be over in America with her.
I really miss her.
I’m really wanting to take off at the end of this year. Early next year.
Once I have the money. Then I need to tee up work overseas and just go.
I want to travel. I was thinking how when I was a kid I would always change my room. Put my bed in different places put up different photos, pictures anything just for a change.
